It’s a role often unseen—but deeply influential. The role of a mother. When you look at successful families, you’ll often find a sweet, quiet spirit in the shadows. That is the case with Helen Smallbone. You probably know her daughter, Rebecca St. James, or her sons, Luke and Joel of For King & Country. They’re just three of her seven kids. And then there’s her husband, David—who is also prominent in the Christian music world. Cheering them all on is a woman filled with grace and determination. She is the focus of the upcoming movie, “Unsung Hero.” She’s also the author of the book, “Behind the Lights,” which tells the incredible story of her family’s move from Australia to the American music scene.
